Biography

Eminem (real name Marshall Mathers) emerged as a hip hop superstar in 1999 with the release of The Slim Shady LP and the hit single My Name Is.

A protégé of Dr Dre, who signed the artist after seeing him perform at the Rap Olympics, Eminem has emerged as the first credible mainstream white rapper.

On top of his wildly successful solo work, including The Marshall Mathers LP, The Eminem Show and new album Encore, Eminem has also recorded two albums with the group D12: Devils Night and D12 World and made a critically-acclaimed acting debut in the semi-autobiographical film 8 Mile, for which the artist also won a best soundtrack Oscar for the song Lose Yourself.
